Most people would, I bet, assume we're talking about hoarding disorder.
I certainly do.
And my question, which was just an aside that is now long off topic, was just wondering if those hoarders believe their piles of old newspapers or collections of unreadable, obsolete ebook files have value and use, and THAT'S why they're compelled to keep them, or if they are compelled to keep them despite believing they have no value or use. |
I don't have any unreadable, obsolete files. I keep my ebook collection well in order and up to date. And yes, of course they have value and use for me. I read them. Granted, I couldn't read them all in hundreds of years, but I read as much of them as I can.
